Should children be allowed on Britain got talent?
Earlier this week Bruce Forsyth went on radio and said that he likes Britains Got Talent, but he does not think that it should be for children because it would be too much of an ordeal for them and its not a good idea to put kids of that age through it. He said that instead Simon Cowell should make another Britains Got Talent for children called "Britains Children's Got Talent". During the week both sides of the argument have been stated, on episodes of Britains Got Talent, but mainly by judges and acts, but the question remains should there be another show?
We believe that children on tv shows such as BGT tend to get the sympathy vote or the "aww factor", when other deserving acts tend to get the boot.
On the other hand though if you have got talent nothing should stop you! And also many famous singers were recognised from a young age - what's wrong with that? Giving children opportunities and broadening their horizon gives them more options in the future.
In the end we believe children should be able to show their talents but on a different show. We think it would be less pressure because they are not going against experienced adults, they are going against people their same age and roughly the same experience.
